Joshua 24:1-13

Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, for their heads, for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God. Joshua said to all the people, "The LORD, the God of Israel, says, 'Your fathers lived of old time beyond the River, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor. They served other gods. I took your father Abraham from beyond the River, and led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his offspring, and gave him Isaac. I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave to Esau Mount Seir, to possess it. Jacob and his children went down into Egypt. " 'I sent Moses and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt, according to that which I did among them: and afterward I brought you out. I brought your fathers out of Egypt: and you came to the sea. The Egyptians pursued your fathers with chariots and with horsemen to the Red Sea. When they cried out to the LORD, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea on them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I did in Egypt. You lived in the wilderness many days. " 'I brought you into the land of the Amorites, that lived beyond the Jordan. They fought with you, and I gave them into your hand. You possessed their land, and I destroyed them from before you. Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose and fought against Israel. He sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you, but I would not listen to Balaam; therefore he blessed you still. So I delivered you out of his hand. " 'You went over the Jordan, and came to Jericho. The men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I delivered them into your hand. I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow. I gave you a land on which you had not labored, and cities which you didn't build, and you live in them. You eat of vineyards and olive groves which you didn't plant.'

Salmo responsorial

Psalm 136:1-3, 16-18, 21-22 and 24

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever. Give thanks to the God of gods, for his loving kindness endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of lords, for his loving kindness endures forever; to him who led his people through the wilderness, for his loving kindness endures forever; to him who struck great kings, for his loving kindness endures forever; and killed mighty kings, for his loving kindness endures forever; and gave their land as an inheritance, for his loving kindness endures forever; even a heritage to Israel his servant, for his loving kindness endures forever; and has delivered us from our adversaries, for his loving kindness endures forever;

Evangelio

Matthew 19:3-12

Los fariseos se acercaron a él para ponerle a prueba y decirle: «¿Es lícito que un hombre se divorcie de su mujer por cualquier motivo?» Él respondió: "¿No habéis leído que el que los hizo desde el principio los hizo varón y mujer, y dijo: «Por eso el hombre dejará a su padre y a su madre, y se unirá a su mujer, y los dos se convertirán en una sola carne»? De modo que ya no son dos, sino una sola carne. Por tanto, lo que Dios ha unido, que no lo separe el hombre". Le preguntaron: «¿Por qué, entonces, Moisés nos ordenó que le diéramos un certificado de divorcio y nos divorciáramos de ella?» Les dijo: «Moisés, a causa de la dureza de vuestros corazones, os permitió divorciaros de vuestras mujeres, pero desde el principio no ha sido así. Os digo que el que se divorcia de su mujer, salvo por inmoralidad sexual, y se casa con otra, comete adulterio; y el que se casa con ella estando divorciada, comete adulterio.» Sus discípulos le dijeron: «Si este es el caso del hombre con su mujer, no conviene casarse». Pero él les dijo: «No todos los hombres pueden recibir esta palabra, sino aquellos a quienes se les ha dado. Porque hay eunucos que nacieron así desde el vientre de su madre, y hay eunucos que fueron hechos eunucos por los hombres; y hay eunucos que se hicieron a sí mismos eunucos por el Reino de los Cielos. El que pueda recibirlo, que lo reciba».
